Fails WP:LISTN because "celebrities who have used Wikipedia" has not been discussed as a group or set in independent reliable sources. SSTflyer 16:07, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Nonnotable trivia. Pburka (talk) 16:28, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete List not notable. Daniel Kenneth (talk) 16:46, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Snow Delete. Given that good articles are assumed to have proper and reliable sources (direct quotations or otherwise), this is more simply a "List of people who have used Wikipedia." An unimportant list regarding a non-notable, unencyclopedic fact. Or perhaps we want a "List of people who have been quoted as having used Google" and "List of people who have been quoted as having used YouTube" too? That sounds delightful.

  • Delete Possibly was a reasonable concept in 2005, but in 2016 you'd have to list people who haven't used Wikipedia. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 19:48, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:SUBJECT and Mr. Magoo. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 20:18, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Seems a little self important. I doubt such a list would be relevant in any context for other encyclopedias or knowledge bases, is there a People who use JSTOR article? How about Brittanica? Tpdwkouaa (talk) 21:17, 17 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to WP namespace. Indiscriminate list of trivia that probably interest some, but may be an inappropriate amount of self-references.--Prisencolin (talk) 19:42, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - indiscriminate list of trivia.--Staberinde (talk) 16:11, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this rubbish. Neutralitytalk 02:52, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • SNOW Delete as although amusing, this is still questionable for noticeably better. SwisterTwister talk 06:03, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
